Описание: Mentioned in the annals of the first settlement (Nikola on Zhabna), located on the site of the present Kalyazin, belong to the XII century. The importance of the settlement increased with the founding of the Kalyazinsko-Trinity (Makaryevsky) monastery on the opposite bank of the Volga in the 15th century]. Around 1468, the city was visited by Athanasius Nikitin, who mentioned it in his travel notes "Walking for Three Seas." At the end of the XVII century, the young Peter I made his “funny trips” to the monastery area At the end of the 17th century, the Kalyazinskaya Monastery and Nikolskaya Sloboda, as well as the village of Pirogovo, were merged into one Kalyazinsky settlement. In 1609, a Russian militia was formed near Kalyazin led by Mikhail Skopin-Shuisky, and an important victory over the Polish-Lithuanian army was won in the battle of Kalyazin. In 1775, by decree of Catherine II, the settlement was given the status of a county town. In the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries, Kalyazin was a significant trade center; fairs were held twice a year. Since the end of the 19th century, shipbuilding, blacksmithing, felting and lacework have been developing. Soviet power in Kalyazin was established on December 27, 1917 (January 9, 1918), when the district congress of the Soviets recognized Soviet power. In 1939-1940, part of the territory of the old city, including all the main monuments of history and architecture, was flooded during the construction of the Uglich hydroelectric station.
